Trish Stratus makes bold claim ahead of WWE RAW
Trish Stratus has made a bold claim ahead of tomorrow night's episode of WWE RAW.
Tomorrow's edition of the red brand is the final episode of RAW before WWE Payback 2023 next weekend. The rivalry between Trish Stratus and Becky Lynch has been going on for months but it may finally come to an end at the premium live event on September 2nd.
Becky Lynch and Trish Stratus are scheduled to face each other in a Steel Cage match at Payback. They were seemingly heading toward a clash at SummerSlam but the match was postponed to the August 14th edition of RAW. However, that match ended in a double count-out and WWE official Adam Pearce announced that Stratus and Lynch will be competing once again in a Steel Cage match at Payback.
Ahead of tomorrow night's episode of RAW, Trish Stratus took to her Instagram story to make a bold claim. A fan posted an image from Sportskeeda Wrestling and Stratus claimed it was a "fact" that she has been the best since she arrived in the company.

Good luck Chuck, see you later, alligator. If you can't hack it, get your jacket. Go on. Let's be done with you. I'm sick of seeing her face around this place," she said. [From 1:00:30 - 1:00:59]
